Lo que falta:
La exploración del uso de fotografías en la “elaboración” del cuerpo natal con jóvenes transgénero
Palabras clave:
Transgénero, Cuerpo natal, FotografíasResumen
El artículo trata sobre cómo el proceso de transición, anticipado o real, de algunas personas jóvenes que se identifican como transgénero representa un movimiento que las aleja de algo que sienten que está mal, que es doloroso o traumático en ellas mismas, y que aún no há sido reconocido conscientemente como tal. Esto se convierte en la parte que falta de la experiencia del self, encerrada en el cuerpo. La autora sugiere que el proceso de identificación y restitución de la parte que falta requiere la elaboración psíquica del cuerpo natal en su sentido metafórico y literal, a fin de ampliar el abanico de opciones al momento de decidir de forma autónoma cómo encontrar un hogar hospitalario en el cuerpo. Asimismo, la autora propone añadir um “hecho básico de la vida” más a los tres planteados por Money-Kyrle: la inevitable naturaleza corpórea de los seres humanos, a fin de subrayar que toda historia personal incluye siempre la historia corporal, y de allí la importancia de elaborar psíquicamente lo que el cuerpo natal representa de manera inconsciente. Se describe el uso de fotografías durante la psicoterapia psicoanalítica com personas jóvenes que han comenzado una transición social, para trabajar las representaciones visuales del cuerpo natal a fin de facilitar la elaboración (en el sentido psicoanalítico) de la narrativa inconsciente del cuerpo natal. Se sugiere que la utilización de esta modalidad visual puede ser especialmente beneficiosa para llegar a las personas jóvenes ubicadas en el espectro autista
